On the Nonthermal Emission and Acceleration of Electrons in Coma and Other Clusters of Galaxies
Some clusters of galaxies, in addition to thermal bremsstrahlung (TB), emit detectable diffuse radiation from the intracluster medium (ICM) at radio, EUV, and hard X-ray (HXR) ranges. The radio radiation must be due to synchrotron by relativistic electrons, and the inverse Compton scattering by the cosmic microwave background radiation of …
